A forum thread on GameFAQs has indications that Risen 2: Dark Waters may be the latest game to ship with what's supposed to be future DLC included on the retail disc. The thread outlines the discovery, and spawns one of those heated discussions over the ethics of making content on the game disc dependant on a future. Thanks Blend Games.

Shoddy hit detection for one, and I honestly thought the reaction time from button press to actual animation just doesn't feel solid. But then again, I'm not a fan of PB much to begin with.

I've never really had an issue with either the hit detection or control responsiveness in any of PB's games. The player's attack animations aren't as quick as Ninja Gaiden's or Devil May Cry's but those games have much faster-paced combat in general. As for hit detection, it seems pretty accurate to me. The fact that you can't interrupt enemy attacks and/or not all enemies play hit reactions may make it seem like the hit detection is inconsistent, but it's working as intended.
